Priscilla Thomas Photography

I was born on a U.S. Air Force base in Keflavik, Iceland, to parents native to Mississippi and Louisiana. My early childhood was spent in Alamogordo, NM, before my family returned to some southern comfort in Charleston, SC. Photography has been a part of my life since adolescence when I worked on the school newspaper and yearbook. During college, I contributed editorial op-ed pieces to The George Street Observer at the College of Charleston and continued to embrace photographic ventures. After college, I started freelancing in photography and writing in Charleston, SC.

My passion for photography, visual storytelling, and culture has also fueled a love of travel. Thus far my travels have included India, Turkey, Greece, Mexico,Costa Rica, Germany, and Jordan. I received a B.A. in Religious Studies from the College of Charleston. I continued my education to complete the coursework for a M.A. in Visual Communication with a concentration in Photojournalism and cognate in Multimedia at Ohio University. When I’m not photographing, I enjoy reading, short story writing, and am an avid podcast junkie. Favorites include This American Life, Crimetown, More Perfect, Slow Burn, and the list goes on and on!
